I'm offering a folk art ONB (oil on board) painting by Toronto artist W. Laflamme, created in 1956. The painting depicts a serene landscape with a pond and houses. The dimensions are 30.75 inches by 24.75 inches. This vintage piece adds a touch of nostalgia and Canadian artistry to any space. Because this is a used item, there are small blemishes around the frame of the art.
The frame is gold coloured.
On verso:
"Painted by W. Laflamme"
"30 Marjory Ave Toronto"
"1956"
About the Artist: W. Laflamme
While not a "listed" artist commonly found in major auction databases, this inscription suggests W. Laflamme was a local Toronto-based painter active in the mid-20th century.
Location: The address 30 Marjory Avenue is located in the Leslieville neighborhood of Toronto. In the 1950s, this area was a working-class residential community.
Context: Finding an artist's home address on the reverse often indicates the work was a personal commission, a gift, or sold directly from the artist's studio rather than through a commercial gallery.
Style and Period: The date of 1956 and the traditional landscape style align with the mid-century Canadian interest in impressionistic, local nature scenes.
Given its age, this painting has an estimated value between $150 and $300 CAD based on similar folk art pieces available on .
